Denali National Park and Preserve (Denali) contains one of the highest densities of nesting Golden Eagles (Aquila cluysaetos) in North America. Productivity of this migratory population varies both temporally and spatially. Regardless of prey abundance, more fledglings are consistently produced at some nesting territories than others. In many raptor studies,...
At least 105% nearly east-west extension of late Cenozoic age has been accommodated by down-to-the-east normal and oblique-slip faults in the central Wassuk Range. One northwest striking, right-lateral strike-slip fault probably contributes an additional component of WNW-ESE slip. Movement on the normal and oblique-slip faults in this area tilt the...

This thesis is the first third of a novel in progress called Rose, Thou Art Sick. In the selection, Rose loses her mother in a freak accident in Boston, is threatened by her evil uncle Charlie, and packs up and moves to Kansas to live with her father, whom she...

The Mt. Scott watershed in northern Clackamas County, Oregon is an urban watershed that lies inside the Portland metropolitan urban growth boundary. Urbanization of the watershed began in the early 1970s and has recently accelerated. A landscape level analysis of the urbanization process was combined with the results of a...
Adventitious root formation can be inhibited in stem cuttings
of Pisum sativum L. (pea), an easy-to-root species, if the apical
and lateral buds are removed. Application of exogenous auxin to
the apical stump can replace the rooting stimulus produced by the
buds. Root number was reduced by 50 to 100%...
In the Sierra Nevada, distributions of forest tree
species are largely controlled by the soil-moisture
balance. Changes in temperature or precipitation as
a result of increased greenhouse gas concentrations
could lead to changes in species distributions. In
addition, climatic change could increase the frequency
and severity of wildfires. We used...
